Reborn Concubine's Wife

Chapter 178: Go Home (2)
Dad, who is usually gentle and elegant, did not expect to be so persistent in the matter of A Ruo.Zheng Jinxiao was also a little worried. From the bottom of his heart, he didn't want Ah Ruo to marry Wang Jiulang as a concubine. However, in this state, who else would marry her?

The days slipped by slowly, gradually entering October.As Zheng Ruo said, the rain finally began to fall cheerfully. There were several heavy rains in the past few days, irrigating the already dry land.

Since Zheng Ruo came back, she has been staying in Hengwu Garden. Although Father grounded her, she didn't stop eating and drinking at all.Because Dad became the patriarch, her life has become many times better than before.

Sanjiang restaurant has started to be repaired, Xu Yi recruited some staff according to Zheng Ruo's order.Most of them were from Li Yun's beggar gang, those who were not in good health and were not suitable for soldiers.

A few days after the last time refugees broke into Wubao, Shi Yue heard that Zheng Ruo was ill and hadn't left the yard for dozens of days.As a male, it is not easy for him to go in and visit him. He knows that after Zheng Wan accused him last time, it would be foolish to want to go to Zheng Ruona.He was depressed for a while.Even the people in Wubao gradually started to disdain him. If it wasn't for the kindness that saved Zheng Yuanyi back then, he thought maybe he would have been expelled from Zheng's residence and become a beggar without a fixed place again.

So when Xu Yi told him that he was required to prepare some dishes in the next few days, the joy in his heart was really beyond words.There was a small corner in his heart, and he thought maybe Ah Ruo still had some affection for him, otherwise why would he still be willing to let him manage the restaurant?
Zheng Ruo didn't care about Shi Yue's thoughts, and even though she was ordered to stay in Hengwu Garden after she came back, she didn't have any free time at all.Back then in Zhiyang City, Li Yun told her that he wanted his eldest brother to be a quartermaster.She naturally understood his intentions, on the one hand, she was happy that her elder brother was finally able to become an official, and on the other hand, she began to plan his military salary.I want to make a detailed account and hand it over to my eldest brother, so that he won't lose his mind.

And those salt mines, Wubao and so on, she also began to take care of them slowly.She knew that salt had always been a controlled item, and although she encouraged Li Yun to buy a few salt mines, she was actually a little worried.Now that Li Yun occupies half of western Liaoning, this matter has become justifiable, and those worries have become superfluous.

She could almost foresee that with such a few salt mines, the money would flow in.Li Yun also has a guarantee for raising soldiers in the future. She began to think whether the food of the soldiers should be improved. When Li Yun was in the west of the city, there were many old and weak women and children. Should they be allowed to go to the village to help raise some pigs and chickens? Ah or something.With meat, the soldiers will have the strength to fight in the future.

It took her three days to straighten out the thoughts in her mind.Because he couldn't go out, Xu Yi became an errand runner.In the past few days, Xu Yi was in charge of the restaurant and busy with Li Yun's affairs, so he lost a whole circle of weight.While Zheng Ruo was busy, there were more and more banquets in Phoenix City because of Wang Jiulang's return.

It is said that in three days, someone from the Wang clan of Langya will come to Phoenix City.Before Wang Jiulang left Phoenix City, there was originally a banquet where sisters-in-law from various families were specially invited, but it ended hastily because he suddenly went to Zhiyang City.This time, it was heard that someone from the Wang family was here, and the palace began to hold this banquet again.

People in Phoenix City rumored that this was for Wang Jiulang to choose a wife.As the outside world has said, the unmarried sisters-in-law of various aristocratic families have all received invitations.Zheng Ruo also received one.

The sky is like black velvet, there is no moon but only starlight.The soft light shone on the girl kneeling under the eaves of the corridor below, so calm and peaceful, it comforted people's impetuousness instantly.

She closed her eyes lightly, and put the xun with both hands to her mouth, a sob-like voice resounded faintly over the Zheng residence.Liu Xu has never figured out why the girl likes such a sad ocarina?She glanced at the piano case, Qin, the girl hasn't moved for a long time.

The girl who just took a bath exudes a faint fragrance of soap locust, and the wide sleeves of the robe slide to her elbows. If it weren't for the white jade wrist, she would be mistaken for the girl in the black clothes in this dark night. a part of.

I don't know what she was thinking, but the sound of that Xun made people feel sad and wanted to shed tears.The slightly damp hair flowed along the curve of the back, and circled at the tail. The water drops along the hairline, and finally hung tremblingly on the tip of the hair. Finally, even though it was reluctant to give up, it still fell to the ground, making a slight groan. rattle.

"Girl..." Liu Xu took a step forward, and was about to persuade her to go to bed, when a sudden dizziness hit her, she supported her head, and fell limply on the ground.Zheng Ruo was startled, stood up, walked towards her, held her in her arms, patted her cheek lightly, and called, "Liu Xu, Liu Xu."

"She's fine." A voice suddenly sounded from behind, thick and mellow.It's not like Wang Jiulang Qingyue, but it sounds just as nice.

Zheng Ruo placed the catkins and walked out. The man was already sitting under the eaves of the porch, with a table in front of him, on which was freshly brewed tea.

Li Yun was dressed in dust, slowly playing with the light teacup with his hands, unlike the lacquerware he usually uses, nor is it pottery, this teacup is all white, and the tea soup in the cup is green and clear, with a slight shake, it is light The aroma overflowed and permeated the tip of the nose, which smelled very good.

This cup, this tea, he has seen before, at Wang Jiulang's place.

Zheng Ruo walked over with bare feet, and the girl's fragrance that came with the wind made Li Yun, who had been thinking deeply, turn his head, stepping on the wooden board with his feet as small as white jade, his eyes suddenly burst into a wolf-like light .Zheng Ruoruo felt something, walked quickly in front of him to finish, and pulled the hem of his clothes to cover his little feet.She had just showered and was about to go to bed. She didn't wear socks, and she didn't expect a late-night visitor.

Li Yun withdrew his gaze, and the teacup in his hand was still slowly spinning, "Do you like this tea? This cup?"

Zheng Ruo nodded, "It's just wild tea, it goes well with this cup."

"Wang Jiulang sent it?"

Zheng Ruo nodded.

Since returning to Phoenix City, Wang Jiulang sent people to deliver things every day, sometimes it was a piece of jewelry, sometimes a pair of calligraphy and painting, sometimes it was just a flower, and sometimes it was just a plate of snacks.They are all things that he feels good about and wants to share with her.The flowers and plants were thrown away by her, although she knew that those flowers and plants were very expensive and unavailable in the market; she fed the snacks to the puppies, and the jewelry was returned directly.Only this Biluochun, she wanted to throw it away, wanted to retreat, but was never willing.After Wang Jiulang learned about it, he sent someone to deliver a set of porcelain the next day. According to the person who sent it, the porcelain was fired by Wang Jiulang himself.Whether it's true or not, she found that Biluochun soaked in such utensils would complement each other.She was reluctant to throw it away, because it was said that there were only two sets of this thing in the world, one was with Wang Jiulang, and the other was with her.
